FAQs

 

What is the frequency and duration of psychotherapy

When I first meet with a client, I like to meet weekly to establish our relationship, our goals, what the plan is, and get some momentum going. From there, we can typically reduce the frequency as needed as things improve. Of course, scheduling, finances, and life influence availability and frequency, so I am not rigid about this.

Can i claim psychotherapy services as an expense?

As a Registered Psychotherapist, if you have insurance coverage for psychotherapy services, you may be able to use your benefits. Psychotherapy services are also an eligible medical expense on your income tax return. If you insurance company does not yet include coverage, see resources here to advocate for coverage

How many sessions does psychotherapy take?

Therapy is always voluntary. I encourage you to notice if or what helps, what doesn’t, and we can navigate together what best meets your needs. Some clients may only come for a single session, but typically, most of my clients will attend for a series of sessions. These can be spread out over months or even years. They can be weekly, or sporadic. Again, we can explore what best suits you.

i’m interested to find out more, what do i do?

Please contact me for a free 20 minute phone consultation. Let’s chat briefly to see if we are a good fit to work together. There is no obligation to book a session if we talk. I hope you can at least get some information to discern what to do next, whether that is work together, get referrals for other services, or obtain awareness of other options that may be a better fit.
